Sharon Needles & Alaska Announce Breakup

RuPaul's Drag Race superstars Sharon Needles & Alaska have gone public about their recent breakup after four years in a very public romantic relationship.

The devastating duo has always been up front with their large respective fan bases, and they are acting no differently when it comes to discussing their split.

"I will always love Sharon, and we will continue to be a part of each other’s lives,” Alaska says in a press release. “Authenticity and honesty to our fans is so important to us, and we will always be there for all of you, no matter what. I appreciate your love and support in this period of change.”

“Due to the severe change not only in mine but Alaska’s life, the survival of our partnership relies on simply changing the word “boy” in boyfriend to “best”. And because of my severe vanity, I’d like to keep my social media as a place dedicated to my art, and not a place to talk about my personal life. RuPaul once said that people come into our lives for different reasons for different intervals of time. I will treasure the four years we had together.”
